Miso Soup Bowl
These bowls are best suited for about one cup of miso soup; recognized as a standard US serving. The bowl's size and shape make it ideal for serving soups, appetizers, or desserts, and the traditional lid helps to keep the contents at a temperature. Due to its unique construction, the bowl does not transfer heat easily, making it ideal for maintaining either hot or cold dishes.These bowls may be considered too small for ramen servings, especially for those wishing to add additional toppings.
